2012-12-11mm, memory-hotplug: dynamic configure movable memory and portion memoryLai Jiangshan1-11/+22
Add online_movable and online_kernel for logic memory hotplug. This is the dynamic version of "movablecore" & "kernelcore". We have the same reason to introduce it as to introduce "movablecore" & "kernelcore". It has the same motive as "movablecore" & "kernelcore", but it is dynamic/running-time: o We can configure memory as kernelcore or movablecore after boot. Userspace workload is increased, we need more hugepage, we can't use "online_movable" to add memory and allow the system use more THP(transparent-huge-page), vice-verse when kernel workload is increase. Also help for virtualization to dynamic configure host/guest's memory, to save/(reduce waste) memory. Memory capacity on Demand o When a new node is physically online after boot, we need to use "online_movable" or "online_kernel" to configure/portion it as we expected when we logic-online it. This configuration also helps for physically-memory-migrate. o all benefit as the same as existed "movablecore" & "kernelcore". o Preparing for movable-node, which is very important for power-saving, hardware partitioning and high-available-system(hardware fault management). (Note, we don't introduce movable-node here.) Action behavior: When a memoryblock/memorysection is onlined by "online_movable", the kernel will not have directly reference to the page of the memoryblock, thus we can remove that memory any time when needed. When it is online by "online_kernel", the kernel can use it. When it is online by "online", the zone type doesn't changed. Current constraints: Only the memoryblock which is adjacent to the ZONE_MOVABLE can be online from ZONE_NORMAL to ZONE_MOVABLE.

2012-12-11memory hotplug: suppress "Device memoryX does not have a release() function" ↵Yasuaki Ishimatsu1-1/+8
warning When calling remove_memory_block(), the function shows following message at device_release(). "Device 'memory528' does not have a release() function, it is broken and must be fixed." The reason is memory_block's device struct does not have a release() function. So the patch registers memory_block_release() to the device's release() function for suppressing the warning message. Additionally, the patch moves kfree(mem) into the release function since the release function is prepared as a means to free a memory_block struct.

2012-10-09memory-hotplug: update memory block's state and notify userspaceWen Congyang1-4/+27
remove_memory() will be called when hot removing a memory device. But even if offlining memory, we cannot notice it. So the patch updates the memory block's state and sends notification to userspace. Additionally, the memory device may contain more than one memory block. If the memory block has been offlined, __offline_pages() will fail. So we should try to offline one memory block at a time. Thus remove_memory() also check each memory block's state. So there is no need to check the memory block's state before calling remove_memory().

2012-10-09memory-hotplug: preparation to notify memory block's state at memory hot removeWen Congyang1-6/+3
remove_memory() is called in two cases: 1. echo offline >/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryXX/state 2. hot remove a memory device In the 1st case, the memory block's state is changed and the notification that memory block's state changed is sent to userland after calling remove_memory(). So user can notice memory block is changed. But in the 2nd case, the memory block's state is not changed and the notification is not also sent to userspcae even if calling remove_memory(). So user cannot notice memory block is changed. For adding the notification at memory hot remove, the patch just prepare as follows: 1st case uses offline_pages() for offlining memory. 2nd case uses remove_memory() for offlining memory and changing memory block's state and notifing the information. The patch does not implement notification to remove_memory().

2012-01-12kdump: add udev events for memory online/offlineMichael Holzheu1-3/+14
Currently no udev events for memory hotplug "online" and "offline" are generated: # udevadm monitor # echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory4/state ==> No event When kdump is loaded, kexec detects the current memory configuration and stores it in the pre-allocated ELF core header. Therefore, for kdump it is necessary to reload the kdump kernel with kexec when the memory configuration changes (e.g. for online/offline hotplug memory). In order to do this automatically, udev rules should be used. This kernel patch adds udev events for "online" and "offline". Together with this kernel patch, the following udev rules for online/offline have to be added to "/etc/udev/rules.d/98-kexec.rules": SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="online", PROGRAM="/etc/init.d/kdump restart" SUBSYSTEM=="memory", ACTION=="offline", PROGRAM="/etc/init.d/kdump restart" [sfr@canb.auug.org.au: fixups for class to subsystem conversion] Signed-off-by: Michael Holzheu <holzheu@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Heiko Carstens <heiko.carstens@de.ibm.com> Cc: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com> Cc: "Eric W.

2011-10-18mm: memory hotplug: Check if pages are correctly reserved on a per-section basisMel Gorman1-18/+40
(Resending as I am not seeing it in -next so maybe it got lost) mm: memory hotplug: Check if pages are correctly reserved on a per-section basis It is expected that memory being brought online is PageReserved similar to what happens when the page allocator is being brought up. Memory is onlined in "memory blocks" which consist of one or more sections. Unfortunately, the code that verifies PageReserved is currently assuming that the memmap backing all these pages is virtually contiguous which is only the case when CONFIG_SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP is set. As a result, memory hot-add is failing on those configurations with the message; kernel: section number XXX page number 256 not reserved, was it already online? This patch updates the PageReserved check to lookup struct page once per section to guarantee the correct struct page is being checked.

PAGES_PER_SECTION On ppc64 the minimum memory section for hotplug is 16MB but most recent machines have a memory block size of 256MB. This means memory_block_change_state does 16 separate calls to memory_section_action. This also means we call the notifiers 16 times and the hook in the ehea network driver is quite costly. To offline one 256MB region takes: # time echo offline > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/state 7.9s This patch removes the loop and calls online_pages or remove_memory once for the entire region and in doing so makes the logic simpler since we don't have to back out if things fail part way through. The same test to offline one region now takes: # time echo online > /sys/devices/system/memory/memory32/state 0.67s Over 11 times faster.

2011-02-03memory hotplug: sysfs probe routine should add all memory sectionsNathan Fontenot1-3/+10
As a follow-on to the recent patches I submitted that allowed for a sysfs memory block to span multiple memory sections, we should also update the probe routine to online all of the memory sections in a memory block. Without this patch the current code will only add a single memory section. I think the probe routine should add all of the memory sections in the specified memory block so that its behavior is in line with memory hotplug actions through the sysfs interfaces. This patch applies on top of the previous sysfs memory updates to allow a sysfs directory o span multiple memory sections. https://lkml.org/lkml/2011/1/20/245 Signed-off-by: Nathan Fontenot <nfont@austin.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@suse.de>
2011-02-03memory hotplug: Update phys_index to [start|end]_section_nrNathan Fontenot1-10/+31
Update the 'phys_index' property of a the memory_block struct to be called start_section_nr, and add a end_section_nr property. The data tracked here is the same but the updated naming is more in line with what is stored here, namely the first and last section number that the memory block spans. The names presented to userspace remain the same, phys_index for start_section_nr and end_phys_index for end_section_nr, to avoid breaking anything in userspace. This also updates the node sysfs code to be aware of the new capability for a memory block to contain multiple memory sections and be aware of the memory block structure name changes (start_section_nr). This requires an additional parameter to unregister_mem_sect_under_nodes so that we know which memory section of the memory block to unregister.

2011-02-03memory hotplug: Allow memory blocks to span multiple memory sectionsNathan Fontenot1-47/+108
Update the memory sysfs code such that each sysfs memory directory is now considered a memory block that can span multiple memory sections per memory block. The default size of each memory block is SECTION_SIZE_BITS to maintain the current behavior of having a single memory section per memory block (i.e. one sysfs directory per memory section).

2010-03-30include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking ↵Tejun Heo1-0/+1
implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies. percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is used as the basis of conversion. http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py The script does the followings. * Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used, gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h. * When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered - alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there doesn't seem to be any matching order. * If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the file. The conversion was done in the following steps. 1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400 files. 2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion, some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added inclusions to around 150 files. 3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits from #2 to make sure no file was left behind. 4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed. e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually. 5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as necessary. 6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h. 7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq). * x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config. * powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig * sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig * ia64 SMP allmodconfig * s390 SMP allmodconfig * alpha SMP allmodconfig * um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig 8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as a separate patch and serve as bisection point. Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step 6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch. If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of the specific arch.

2010-03-17memory hotplug: allow setting of phys_deviceHeiko Carstens1-5/+10
/sys/devices/system/memory/memoryX/phys_device is supposed to contain the number of the physical device that the corresponding piece of memory belongs to. In case a physical device should be replaced or taken offline for whatever reason it is necessary to set all corresponding memory pieces offline. The current implementation always sets phys_device to '0' and there is no way or hook to change that. Seems like there was a plan to implement that but it wasn't finished for whatever reason. So add a weak function which architectures can override to actually set the phys_device from within add_memory_block().

2009-12-18mm: Add notifier in pageblock isolation for balloon driversRobert Jennings1-0/+19
Memory balloon drivers can allocate a large amount of memory which is not movable but could be freed to accomodate memory hotplug remove. Prior to calling the memory hotplug notifier chain the memory in the pageblock is isolated. Currently, if the migrate type is not MIGRATE_MOVABLE the isolation will not proceed, causing the memory removal for that page range to fail. Rather than failing pageblock isolation if the migrateteype is not MIGRATE_MOVABLE, this patch checks if all of the pages in the pageblock, and not on the LRU, are owned by a registered balloon driver (or other entity) using a notifier chain. If all of the non-movable pages are owned by a balloon, they can be freed later through the memory notifier chain and the range can still be isolated in set_migratetype_isolate().

2009-12-16HWPOISON: Add soft page offline supportAndi Kleen1-0/+61
This is a simpler, gentler variant of memory_failure() for soft page offlining controlled from user space. It doesn't kill anything, just tries to invalidate and if that doesn't work migrate the page away. This is useful for predictive failure analysis, where a page has a high rate of corrected errors, but hasn't gone bad yet. Instead it can be offlined early and avoided. The offlining is controlled from sysfs, including a new generic entry point for hard page offlining for symmetry too. We use the page isolate facility to prevent re-allocation race. Normally this is only used by memory hotplug. To avoid races with memory allocation I am using lock_system_sleep(). This avoids the situation where memory hotplug is about to isolate a page range and then hwpoison undoes that work. This is a big hammer currently, but the simplest solution currently. When the page is not free or LRU we try to free pages from slab and other caches. The slab freeing is currently quite dumb and does not try to focus on the specific slab cache which might own the page. This could be potentially improved later. Thanks to Fengguang Wu and Haicheng Li for some fixes. [Added fix from Andrew Morton to adapt to new migrate_pages prototype] Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
2009-01-06mm: show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfsGary Hade1-6/+13
Show node to memory section relationship with symlinks in sysfs Add /sys/devices/system/node/nodeX/memoryY symlinks for all the memory sections located on nodeX. For example: /sys/devices/system/node/node1/memory135 -> ../../memory/memory135 indicates that memory section 135 resides on node1. Also revises documentation to cover this change as well as updating Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-devices-memory to include descriptions of memory hotremove files 'phys_device', 'phys_index', and 'state' that were previously not described there. In addition to it always being a good policy to provide users with the maximum possible amount of physical location information for resources that can be hot-added and/or hot-removed, the following are some (but likely not all) of the user benefits provided by this change. Immediate: - Provides information needed to determine the specific node on which a defective DIMM is located. This will reduce system downtime when the node or defective DIMM is swapped out. - Prevents unintended onlining of a memory section that was previously offlined due to a defective DIMM. This could happen during node hot-add when the user or node hot-add assist script onlines _all_ offlined sections due to user or script inability to identify the specific memory sections located on the hot-added node. The consequences of reintroducing the defective memory could be ugly. - Provides information needed to vary the amount and distribution of memory on specific nodes for testing or debugging purposes. Future: - Will provide information needed to identify the memory sections that need to be offlined prior to physical removal of a specific node. Symlink creation during boot was tested on 2-node x86_64, 2-node ppc64, and 2-node ia64 systems. Symlink creation during physical memory hot-add tested on a 2-node x86_64 system.

2008-07-24memory-hotplug: add sysfs removable attribute for hotplug memory removeBadari Pulavarty1-0/+19
Memory may be hot-removed on a per-memory-block basis, particularly on POWER where the SPARSEMEM section size often matches the memory-block size. A user-level agent must be able to identify which sections of memory are likely to be removable before attempting the potentially expensive operation. This patch adds a file called "removable" to the memory directory in sysfs to help such an agent. In this patch, a memory block is considered removable if; o It contains only MOVABLE pageblocks o It contains only pageblocks with free pages regardless of pageblock type On the other hand, a memory block starting with a PageReserved() page will never be considered removable. Without this patch, the user-agent is forced to choose a memory block to remove randomly. Sample output of the sysfs files: ./memory/memory0/removable: 0 ./memory/memory1/removable: 0 ./memory/memory2/removable: 0 ./memory/memory3/removable: 0 ./memory/memory4/removable: 0 ./memory/memory5/removable: 0 ./memory/memory6/removable: 0 ./memory/memory7/removable: 1 ./memory/memory8/removable: 0 ./memory/memory9/removable: 0 ./memory/memory10/removable: 0 ./memory/memory11/removable: 0 ./memory/memory12/removable: 0 ./memory/memory13/removable: 0 ./memory/memory14/removable: 0 ./memory/memory15/removable: 0 ./memory/memory16/removable: 0 ./memory/memory17/removable: 1 ./memory/memory18/removable: 1 ./memory/memory19/removable: 1 ./memory/memory20/removable: 1 ./memory/memory21/removable: 1 ./memory/memory22/removable: 1 Signed-off-by: Badari Pulavarty <pbadari@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Acked-by: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki <kamezawa.hiroyu@jp.fujitsu.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
